Brake pads Tesla or OEM Audi
I'd like to add brake jobs are fairly simple too. The front pads in my 2016 Q5 were the easiest of any car I've ever owned.
Pros: fairly simple, easiest ever
Vehicle:
Audi Q5
Brakes and rotors at 30K miles??? I just replaced mine on my 2016 A4 at 75K and the still had plenty of wear left. Yes, I drive aggressively too.
Pros: plenty of wear left
Vehicle:
Audi A4
Mileage: 75000 km
My Tesla has huge rear brakes I hardly ever use. The factory brake pads still look brand new after all these miles. Rear brakes are pointless if you have regen braking.
Pros: brake pads look brand new
Cons: rear brakes are pointless
model-3S have been remarkably reliable, many past 200,000 miles have little issues, some still on the original brake pads.
Pros: remarkably reliable, long lasting
Mileage: 200000 km
No. Looks perfectly normal.
Vehicle:
Audi 100
I have a 2021 District Green Q5e / tan interior and it has been a fantastic car for my use case. 55% City driving means little to no gas use with home charging. Lots of road trips too, it’s a fast highway cruiser. 50k miles so far.
Pros: fast highway cruiser
Vehicle:
Audi Q5
Mileage: 50000 km
Oh, I did have rust pop on one of the original brake pads so I had to replace that this spring - very little pad wear though!
Pros: very little wear
Cons: rust pop
My S4 needed brakes at around 30k. I had a couple dealerships price it out and it was about that.
Vehicle:
Audi S4
Mileage: 30000 km
Unless you thrash your car and don\u2019t care about it, a full brake+tire/alignment service at 30k is wild.
Cons: full service at 30k is wild
Vehicle:
Audi A4
Mileage: 30000 km
I had a colleague with brake failure on a model 3. The first thing he did after insurance paying for the crash, and hearing he'd be out of his car for at least 3 months was to order a real car, a Mazda.
Cons: brake failure
